• Uchiha Jin decided to accelerate the Unification War and prevent Hagoromo from taking the Reanimation powerhouses back to the Pure Land.
• Uchiha Jin activated Susanoo’s power, and Jiraiya began collapsing and disappearing.

Uchiha Jin and his allies fought Jiraiya, who used a Sage Talisman and Mount Myōboku’s forbidden powers to summon a physical Shinigami. They killed Jiraiya before he could unleash more hidden techniques, and the Shinigami vanished.

• Senju Hashirama, Senju Tobirama, Hatake Sakumo, Kakashi, and the others struck Jiraiya with their techniques and killed him.
• The Shinigami faded away after Jiraiya’s death, and the fighters wondered why he had been so powerful.

After Jiraiya’s defeat, Uchiha Jin gathered Konoha’s leaders and the Four Great Shinobi Villages’ Kage for a follow-up meeting. He warned that Jiraiya had nearly overwhelmed their combined forces, leaving everyone to confront the threat of a powerful enemy faction.

• The Four Great Shinobi Villages’ Kage were allowed to observe the meeting but were seated apart from Konoha’s leadership.
• Uchiha Jin said Jiraiya had nearly overturned Konoha despite being only a hired operative supported by limited resources.
• Uchiha Jin warned that the hidden enemy could be far more dangerous if it acted directly.
• The four Kage inferred that a larger faction stood behind Jiraiya and regretted joining Konoha, but realized their people had already been dispersed and they had no way to withdraw.

Uchiha Jin ordered the Five Great War Zones to unify the Shinobi World after Jiraiya’s attack made hiding impossible, and Konoha completed the conquest and stabilization of the nations. Nagato killed the Spiral White Zetsu possessing him and brought four recruited Akatsuki members back to Konoha, where Senju Tobirama and Namikaze Minato delivered them to the Hokage Building.

• Uchiha Jin ordered the Five Great War Zones to seize territory, the Administrative Department to establish order, and Konan to bring Nagato and willing Akatsuki members to Konoha.
• The Five Great War Zones launched their forces, and Konoha unified the Shinobi World in seven days before stabilizing its regions over the next fifteen days.

• Senju Tobirama and Namikaze Minato used the Flying Thunder God Technique to bring Nagato and the four Akatsuki members to the rooftop of the Hokage Building.

• Obito and Black Zetsu found Nagato's last known location in the Land of Snow and concluded Konoha had taken him away using the Flying Thunder God Technique.
• Obito blamed Black Zetsu for failing to reclaim the Rinnegan, and Black Zetsu argued that Nagato was needed to nourish it.

Black Zetsu persuaded Obito to revive Uchiha Madara after the Akatsuki collapsed and Nagato defected to Konoha. Madara learned that Konoha had nearly unified the Shinobi World, but dismissed the achievement and insisted that only the Infinite Tsukuyomi could bring true peace.

• Black Zetsu urged Obito to revive Madara because the Akatsuki had fallen apart and Nagato had taken the Rinnegan to Konoha.
• Obito reluctantly agreed, and he and Black Zetsu returned to Mountain Graveyard to perform Impure World Reincarnation using Madara's body tissue and a White Zetsu vessel.
• Madara revived in an Impure World Reincarnation body and questioned why Nagato had not used the Samsara of Heavenly Life Technique.
• Black Zetsu explained how the Uchiha had taken control of Konoha, Konoha had nearly unified the Shinobi World, and Nagato had defected there with the Rinnegan.
• Madara praised Uchiha Jin's accomplishments but declared that unification was meaningless and that only the Infinite Tsukuyomi could create true peace.

Uchiha Jin activated the Hongmeng Tower after the Shinobi World’s unification and spent most of his Fortune awakening the Rinnegan. When he sensed Uchiha Madara approaching Konoha, Jin headed outside the village to confront him.

Hidan joined him, and the two were left to consider what they could do without the Rinnegan, the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path, or a way to challenge Uchiha Jin.

• Obito arrived at Akatsuki's headquarters and lamented that Uchiha Jin had captured Uchiha Madara and Black Zetsu while Nagato's group had joined Konoha.
• Hidan entered the empty Main Hall looking for Nagato, Kakuzu, and the other Akatsuki members.
• Obito told Hidan that everyone else had defected to Konoha and only the two of them remained.
• Hidan asked whether Obito planned to join Konoha, and Obito declared that he would pursue the Moon Eye Plan instead.
• Hidan agreed to follow Obito as long as he could continue offering sacrifices to the Evil God.

In Amenominaka’s Ice-Snow Space, Uchiha Madara learned that Black Zetsu had manipulated him and attacked him in rage, but could not kill him. Uchiha Jin then appeared alongside Senju Hashirama, reuniting the old friends.

• Uchiha Madara repeatedly attacked Black Zetsu, who kept reforming, until Madara finally gave up.
• Uchiha Jin appeared with Senju Hashirama, and the two old friends greeted each other after years apart.

Senju Hashirama told Uchiha Madara that the Sage of Six Paths had kept the Shinobi World in conflict to breed warriors for the Otsutsuki, and Madara condemned the plan as arrogant and cruel. Hashirama proposed that they fight the Otsutsuki together, but Madara doubted Uchiha Jin could resurrect them both, leaving them to wait for Jin’s return.

• Senju Hashirama explained that he had asked Uchiha Jin to bring him into the alternate space so he could see Uchiha Madara, then warned Madara not to release his Impure World Reincarnation because the Sage of Six Paths could control him in the Pure Land.
• Senju Hashirama told Uchiha Madara about the Otsutsuki, the Sage of Six Paths, and Uchiha Jin’s theory that Hagoromo had kept the Shinobi World in chaos to produce warriors for a future fight.

• Senju Hashirama agreed with Uchiha Madara and said he would revive and go into space to fight the Otsutsuki, then invited Madara to join him.
• Uchiha Madara doubted that Uchiha Jin could resurrect them both because the Rinnegan’s resurrection required immense power, but Senju Hashirama said he trusted Jin and asked Madara to wait for his return.

Black Zetsu overheard that Uchiha Jin knew the truth about Kaguya, Hagoromo, and the Otsutsuki, and broke down as he realized his plan might have been exposed. After Jin invited Uchiha Madara to join New Konoha, Madara accepted.

• Black Zetsu overheard Hashirama and Madara discussing Uchiha Jin's knowledge and the Sage of Six Paths, then angrily insisted that the claims were impossible.

After learning the danger was real, the Nine-Tails agreed to cooperate as long as Jin did not revive the Ten-Tails, and asked whether Hagoromo was alive and why he would target it.

• Uchiha Jin explained to Kurama that Akatsuki and Uchiha Madara planned to gather the Tailed Beasts and revive the Ten-Tails, and that Hagoromo was secretly clashing with him.

Uchiha Jin explained that Hagoromo had allowed wars to continue so the Shinobi World could produce powerful souls and Chakra for use against the Otsutsuki Clan, and that Jin’s effort to unify the world threatened those plans. The Nine-Tails agreed to cooperate with Jin, who promised to find it a new Jinchuriki after Uzumaki Naruto died of old age.

• Uchiha Jin asked Minato, Kushina, and the Nine-Tails what they thought the Shinobi World was, then described it as a nursery for gathering Chakra and powerful souls.
• Uchiha Jin said Hagoromo had used Black Zetsu and the Senju-Uchiha feud to sustain wars and cultivate weapons against the Otsutsuki Clan.

• Konoha’s rule spread across the Shinobi World, and Uchiha Jin ordered everyone to search for the Covenant Space leading to the Moon.
